SAN MARCOS, TX (January 2, 2009) - Newstreamz Media, L. L. C., today announced its partnership with TexasSpeedZone.com, a successful motorsports website and discussion forum owned by Terry Dickerson of Castroville, Texas.
An avid race fan and former owner of San Antonio Speedway and other racing venues, Dickerson stated that, “Newstreamz has the talent and capability in the internet media arena to take Texas Speed Zone to the next level to represent the myriad of race tracks and racing organizations across the State of Texas.”
“I’ve always had the dream to carry Texas Speed Zone to the next level, but I really didn’t have the time and manpower in place to make it happen,” added Dickerson. “I feel that that Chris and the Newstreamz folks will bring a lot of enthusiasm and professional to Texas motorsports.”
Chris Doelle, Chief Executive Officer of Newstreamz Media states that, “We at Newstreamz applaud Terry on his visionary approach to covering this important area of sports within Texas. It is our intent to provide legitimate and unbiased coverage along with participant discussion forums of all forms of racing in Texas to include drag racing as well as both dirt and paved tracks across the state.”
Over the past six years Texas Speed Zone has provided timely race information and hosted a very active forum for the Texas motorsports community to discuss issues, racers, race tracks and personalities that make this such a popular sport.
Newstreamz Media, which owns and operates several other internet based media platforms including LoneStarGridiron.com and Newstreamz.com, intends to change the name of Texas Speed Zone to align with their existing “Lone Star” branding to provide opportunities for cross-promotional advertising for both national and regional advertisers. The site will soon be renamed “Lone Star
Speedzone.”
Newstreamz Media, L. L. C., is based in San Marcos, Texas, and operates local and state-wide media operations - including audio, video and print capabilities - focused on local news, high school football coverage and, now, stock car and drag racing.

Waterford, CT (January 2, 2009) - The Waterford Speedbowl has released the rules of competition for its Saturday divisions for the 2009 season. Along with this comes the official announcement the ‘Sportsman’ division will be re-named the Street Stock
division in all references moving forward. Rules for the SK Modified®, Late Model, Street Stock and Mini Stock divisions are available for download on www.thebowlisback.com, the primary source for ‘Bowl information and updates while the refurbishment of speedbowl.com continues to take place. Competitors are encouraged to familiarize themselves with their division rules and direct any questions to Tom Fox, the Speedbowl’s Race Director. Tom can be reached by email at info@thebowlisback.com. Those who cannot access the rules via the web should contact the track office at 860-443-7443 to arrange receiving a copy in person, by fax or regular mail. The Street Stock division, with only minor rule changes, has adopted the new name which is more identifiable to the race fan as well as more commonly used nation wide based upon the core set of rules for the division. “The term ‘Sportsman’ was not a very indicative description when compared to race divisions governed by similar rules across the country” stated Fox. “The Board of
Directors felt the change was better suited for both the race fan and racer.”
Late Model competitors should take notice to review division rules closely. “We are continuing our ‘push’ to create an all-ACT Late Model division and we have taken further steps to narrow the rules down to reflect that goal” stated Fox.
In addition to the rules, a tentative 2009 schedule is available for weekly competitors on www.thebowlisback.com. “We wanted to put out a basic schedule for our weekly competitors while we continue working with the Tours. Any changes to our
weekly supporters should be minimal at this point” offered managing partner Shawn Monahan. A full and finalized schedule confirming touring series and visiting divisions, as well as special appreciation and promotional nights will be coming soon.
Wild ‘n Wacky Wednesday race teams are reminded a rules meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, January 6 at Groton Inn & Suites at 6:30p. All Super X Car, X Car, and X Modified teams are encouraged to attend.
The 2008 season banquet will be held Saturday, January 10 at Groton Inn & Suites, recognizing the top 15 in points for SK Modified®, Late Model, Sportsman (now Street Stock), Mini Stock and Saturday Legends car teams. Limited event tickets remain
available for purchase. Please visit www.thebowlisback.com or contact 860-443-7443 for more information on how to secure tickets.

PENSACOLA, FL (January 1, 2009) - As the calendar changes to 2009, the staff at Five Flags Speedway is not looking back on the year that was or December’s 41st Annual Snowball Derby. Instead, they are getting prepared for a spectacular 2009 racing
season at the Pensacola, Florida, oval. Track officials announced today the facility’s 2009 schedule and it is full of happenings from the first month of the year through the final month of the calendar.
“We hope to carry all of the momentum from both the Snowball Derby and the Allen Turner Snowflake 100 into 2009,” said Five Flags Speedway owner and promoter Tim Bryant. “We’re getting started in January with a few events. On January 10th,
we’ll honor our 2008 champions at our Awards Banquet, and then on January 31st we will be holding our Third Annual Racers Swap Meet. That is a good chance for racers to swap and sell their unused parts to prepare for the 2009 season.”
That 2009 racing season will kick off on the track with a bang in late March - when the track begins their Friday night lineup of racing events.
“Our first race of the season is on March 20th, and one week later we will be hosting the ASA Southeast Asphalt Tour for the first time,” said Bryant. “We’ll also have a five-race Blizzard Series and each of those races will be on weekends where Mobile Speedway will host the Super Late Models on Saturday night.
That will give Super Late Model teams 10 chances during the season to race in the area.
“We’ve also added a few events for the Open Wheeled Modifieds this year after they had such a strong turnout during Snowball Derby week. We’ll close the regular season on October 10th with a 100-lap Pro Late Model race, which will be a great
tune-up for the Snowflake 100.”
Once the regular season ends - it’s time for the snow to start flying. That’s when preparations will get underway for the 42nd Annual Snowball Derby. The weekend highlights will once again be the Snowflake 100 on December 5th and the Snowball
Derby on December 6th.
“It all leads up to the Snowball Derby again,” said Bryant. “And we are already excited about that time of the season. We appreciate all the competitors and fans that made this past year a success and we are looking forward to growing it ever
bigger in 2009.”
To see the entire 2009 schedule for Five Flags Speedway, please visit the track website at www.5flagsspeedway.com.
For more information on Five Flags Speedway, the Blizzard Series or the 42nd annual Snowball Derby, contact Matt Kentfield at (704) 788-2134 x 5 and visit www.5flagsspeedway.com.
